A Love&#x27;s in Bloom

Beautiful birthday flowers ... delivered a day late. When my relatives asked if I liked the…read moreflowers, I had to reply, "What flowers?" Delivery had been promised so it meant a hassle for relatives living 1,800 miles away. Jory's is closed on Mondays. Maybe that was the hang-up, but delivery had been promised. When they finally arrived, I was greeted with a "Sorry." The flowers were beautiful and so was the amber tone mosaic vase. (I am still enjoying the vase now filled with some dried fall flowers.) But here is where things get a bit strange. When I was rinsing out the vase, I noticed two stickers on the bottom. One said Mervyn's $39.99 and the other said Goodwill $8.99. Mervyn's closed many years ago so today's retail value of the vase would be much more. Who knows how it ended up at Goodwill and then made its way to Jory's. I don't have an issue with recycling from thrift stores. I do it myself. What was very odd to me was Jory's did not take a minute or two to remove the stickers. Very tacky. This would have been a five-star review if the flowers had arrived on time and in a vase that did not show its thrift store origins.

I had unknowingly been scammed by a third party florist website and lost over $100 on a bouquet that never actually existed. When I called Mona Floral Design to ask about the arrangement, Mona kindly explained that it wasn't one of her designs and that the company had been falsely advertising. After hearing what had happened, she personally reached out and offered to create a custom bouquet for my friend at a very reasonable price. I gladly accepted, and during my trip to Martinez, I had the pleasure of meeting her in person. From the moment we met, she was incredibly kind, welcoming, and so passionate about her work. She showed me where she keeps all of her beautiful flowers and plants and let me hand pick blooms to recreate something inspired by my friend's wedding bouquet. It was even more beautiful than I could have imagined. Every flower felt thoughtfully chosen, and the arrangement perfectly reflected my friend's personality and style. After feeling discouraged from being scammed, Mona completely restored my faith with her generosity, compassion, and talent. My friend absolutely loved the bouquet, and it made the gift feel so much more meaningful because it had been created with such care. If you're looking for someone who truly loves what they do and genuinely cares about their clients, please support Mona Floral Design. Her passion, creativity, and kindness made such a lasting impression on me, and it's an experience I'll never forget. Thank you, Mona, for turning such a disappointing situation into something so beautiful. You helped create a gift that celebrated one of the most important friendships in my life, and I will always be grateful for that.

We were a Wedgewood couple who was linked with Valerie because of her affiliation with our venue, and we're so happy with her work! We still closely reviewed each of our vendors and made changes as necessary, but Valerie's work spoke for itself. She uses fresh flowers and is able to apply various tips and tricks to prevent some of the faux pas that less experienced florists might induce a headache over. She was very attentive to requests but still operated using her artistic vision to bring together a gorgeous ensemble of blooms. She was able to guide the vision with details about our colours and information about other design elements of our day to craft a beautifully cohesive look. I was a little wary since it was harder than expected to find photos of her work, so I wanted to provide some for everyone to see that she doesn't just talk the talk, she arranges gorgeous bouquets and centerpieces! She was able to work with us to go outside the box with our requests (elevated centerpieces) while taking into account the package with our venue so we could still get elements akin to an a la carte wedding without starting from scratch. read more

Valarie is professional, kind, attentive, reliable, and talented. Valarie prepared a huge array of flowers for my January 2015 wedding. With all that happens on a wedding day it is easy to get nervous about details such as flowers! Well, the evening before Valarie called and began with, "Christine-this is Valarie from A Love's in Bloom. Everything is fine." Loved that! The next morning all ceremony related flowers were placed in a box with labels indicating the purpose/assignment for each arrangement. This made methodical what could have been hectic. Oh and my bouquet was just as I had dreamed it to be! Upon arrival at the reception (Bridges Golf Club, San Ramon), I walked into a room full of beautiful cream and white flowers, with greenery interspersed delicately in each arrangement. Again, just as I had dreamed it. I can't recommend Valarie enough. She was a calming, professional and kind presence during the wedding planning phases. She was also amenable to making sure my dream wedding flowers could be kept to my budget! Thank you, Valarie! read more

We used A Love's In Bloom for our wedding October 5th, at Jefferson Street Mansion, in Benicia. Valarie, thank you so much for making our wedding floral so perfect! Throughout the entire creative process, Valarie was intuitive, insightful, respectful, and just plain lovely to work with. She had great ideas for us, worked so well with our bakery to incorporate floral on our cake, and had great ideas regarding our wedding and reception space. Her flowers were beautiful, fresh, and the wedding party flowers were stunning. We would not hesitate to recommend them in the future! Thanks so much, Valarie! You are so wonderful! read more

We used A Loves In Bloom for our daughter's wedding. Valerie was so patient and kind with our daughter who early one kept changing her mind on what she wanted and adding ideas. We actually meet a few times to clarify everything. Each time Valerie knew what our daughter wanted, made wonderful, cost saving suggestions. Her bouquet in particular was gorgeous with added brooches and a few strands of pearls that had belonged to our daughter's grandmothers (something old) and all the flowers the day of the wedding were beyond expectation and perfect for the wedding theme. I will definitely use Valerie - A Loves In Bloom again. read more

Valarie from A Love's in Bloom was absolutely wonderful to work with. She was so helpful working with my daughter, the "bride", wanting to know her likes & dislikes and had several ideas and suggestions that were "perfect" for what we wanted. She went the extra mile to be sure that the color of the orchids for the centerpieces as well as the bridal bouquet matched perfectly with the rasberry color of the bridesmaid dresses. The end result was spectacular, absolutely beautiful. We highly recommend her!!! read more

This review is so long overdue - yet another thing I have to apologize to Karen about…read more If you're looking for a florist for anything, absolutely anything, just know that you don't have to look any further. If Karen has availability for your event, just book her. She is an absolute master at her craft, but also so humble, warm, genuine, prompt, efficient, and about every other positive adjective you can think of. My husband and I were married last January (2023) and I thought about going down the DIY path when the reality of wedding floral costs hit me square in the face. But then we were already DIYing other aspects of the wedding and I knew that one more thing, especially fragile things like flowers, was going to break me. Thankfully, another bride mentioned Karen and Fresh Petals in a Bay Area wedding Facebook group and I texted her right away. In this day and age you may be wary of businesses that don't have an online presence (website, social media, etc.), but Karen is so responsive and doesn't waste any time figuring out when you can meet at her home in Martinez to discuss the details. Do not let her lack of a digital footprint worry you. She has many photos of her work which is great if you need some inspiration. However, she doesn't push you to go with something she's done before. You can absolutely share your vision with her and she'll let you know what she can/can't do, and also alternatives or additions. One other thing to love is that she has built quite an inventory of items and she is more than happy to lend you things like vases for a deposit. At the end of our meeting with Karen, we simply gave her location and time information for our wedding venue and reception venue and she was there when we needed her to be. Our point people at the venues also commented to me later on on how helpful and personable she was when she came to drop off the arrangements. Now for the apology... there was miscommunication between me and the day-of coordinator and guests ended up getting the message that we were giving away the centerpieces. Seven of them were taken before we were able to reconcile on the messaging and give clarity - the floral arrangement was up for grabs, but not the centerpiece boxes as those were from Karen's inventory. To make matters worse, they were created by a former bride's husband and were a unique set of twenty. My husband and I managed to track down a number of the missing ones, but we ended up not being able to retrieve them all. Karen was disappointed, but still so gracious to me and I honestly feel so, so awful to this day. That said, make sure you're on the same page and very, very clear with coordinators, guests, etc. about what must be returned to Karen or any other vendor. In a nutshell - Karen is wonderful and you cannot go wrong with her on your team!

Everyone said they were the most magnificent flowers they had ever seen- and they were. I feel the value was there, even though it was valentines and it was a lot of money for flowers, and yes, I chose roses (on the most expensive day of the year) The only hiccup was my wedding welcome sign was not finished in time, which was really disappointing for me, especially since I paid (a lot) for them and they were in our quote and it was the first thing people saw when they walked in. It was left unfinished on the ground. I don't know where the miscommunication was, but again, it was really disappointing.
